I psyched myself out. I pretty much made a mad dash from the main hall to the break room area to the parking garage and prison cells in about 2-4 minutes. I only got hit by Mr. X once and bit by a zombie once. I still have 13 Lightning Hawk magnum bullets left. I shot all the dogs in the kennel the first time I went around so the parking garage was smooth sailing for me. The power circuit puzzle was easy and the rest is history.

I just made it to the Sewers with Ada Wong. Time to face the Alligator.

Nice! Yea that is the last resort is to just make a dash for it. In hardcore one slash is straight to danger status, so you can imagine my rage when I can't get a door open or fast enough, especially being really low on health items. Good move on killing the dogs first, I did the same as well because they're annoying as fuck, but the door trick works good against them. The Alligator is cool as hell in this version; I died a few times just to see it again .

Fuck those G-Adult variants in the sewers. I've wasted a good deal of ammo on them stupidly trying to get room. Hard to dodge for me.

I loved playing as Ada even though it was short (and did the achievement for not using anything but the EMF Visualizer). They did a great job on her character model in this game, she definitely looks of Chinese descent in this one. She didn't in RE6 even though I liked her character model and look.

I got all of the plugs, chemical flamethrower, secret stash items revealed with the undeveloped film after going back to RPD (a few of the Mr. Raccoons I missed there also) and got all the magnum attachments. I opened the door with the plugs and have to face Birkin for a 2nd time. Going to aim for the use the crane once achievement. Wish me luck!

Agreed! And yes, those fucking things are ridiculous. I wasted almost a half hour trying to not waste ammo and get lucky dodging them. What I do is once they go into that position where it spits out those little face hugger things, I try to run by. If there is no room, lure it out into a more open space if possible. I cannot wait to beat this and get the ranking for infinite ammo on the rocket launcher; gonna kill every fucking one of them.

Finally beat Leon A. Good shit. Started Claire B, but I'm not diving all the way in. Gonna finish kingdom hearts first. Depending on whatever else comes out this year, this is a very strong candidate for GOTY .

this is drifty, but... kingdom hearts 3 is the most obnoxiously inept video game storytelling EVER. At least the earlier games seemed to understand that they were weird fanservice.... this is just an annoying mess. At least the gameplay doesn’t suck this time

I killed most of them except for the ones after the bottom waterway on route to the plugs. The area with the mounds of trash and shit that branches off. I managed to dodge 2 using the method you said through trial and error. Still took damage and wasted about 170 flame fuel on a few. Ugh.

Yeah, I'm getting pretty burned out from it already... It's fun, in a braindead kind of way. Still a little salty they released these games so close together though.

I could kick myself for doing something stupid, I’ve been through Leon a and Claire B on assisted difficulty so I started Claire A on standard difficulty, got all the way to the Lab and after being killed for the nth time it asks me if I want to transfer to assisted and stupid me accidentally says yes, what a waste! I was hoping to get some special ammo or something for completing on standard

I have a HDR TV,Sony X900F, it makes the games I've tried look washed out. I have researched it bit and most people have just turned off HDR. The picture is really nice looking regardless but it would be nice to implement the HDR.

Ever since the first time I saw the Tyrant come through wall and kill that prisoner I've been so worried about running into him again. And I just met him and got away and than ran face to face with him in the lobby, my heart just blew up i need a break.

Finished Leon Scenario A tonight (finally). Managed a B Rank but mainly due to time (5 hrs 50 minutes and some odd seconds) but I took my time to explore and familiarize. I also got every secret item and Mr. Raccoon possible. I got 11/15 and 3 are Claire only and the last one is right by RPD front doors in the bushes. So I'll get all 15.

I had to retry the last two boss fights a bit. G third form was mostly easy but I'd fuck up due to my aim being off for the eyes. Super Tyrant on the other hand was an asshole but once I stopped focusing on using the shotgun and started using Matilda and the flamethrower he was a piece of cake. Felt satisfying to use the rocket launcher to shoot him in the face point blank and watch the upper torso disappear haha.

I managed all boss specific achievements, time based achievements, all the files and got all attachments for every weapon in the Leon play through. Since I'm familiarized with RPD and other areas of the game, my Claire Scenario B run should be faster and much more smooth! I'll start her's tomorrow.

Love this remake! That's how you do it. This is the Capcom I know and love.

HDR will only work using HDMI port 2 or 3 on that particular TV; you will also need an HDMI 2.0 cable to take advantage of 4K @ 60Hz, HDR, HDCP, etc.

From the External Input menu, select HDMI Signal Format, and then select Enhanced Format. Also, verify that X-tended Dynamic range is set to High.

I’ve done that and it looks great it’s just the HDR on video games just looks too bright. I been through 3 expensive 2.0 HDMI cables and decided to keep the Audioquest one. I didn’t think different HDMI cables would make a diifernce but the Audioquest definitely runs smoother. The PS4 pro is running 4K at 60 FPS, it’s just the HDR mode that I’m having problems with. I been on reddit trying to figure it out and for the most part people are just turning off the HDR option on the PS4. Thanks for the response, if you hear anything different please share.

While playong Resident Evil 2 the difference between HDR being on or off is literally night and day for me.

Also the footsteps by Mr X in this game is freaking me out, reminds me of the Xenomorph from alien Isolation.

I never played the original REs (my parents wouldn't let me get any other system besides an NES, but they let me get a PC...bigger mistake for them). This game was a pleasant surprise, and it sounds like they're going to do Nemesis if this does well, and it is.
